Ok, so everyone with LG leon have H345 or H340 kernel and enjoying Android 5.1.1.
But my Leon ( bought in october 2015 ), has a kernel H32410C with Android 5.0.1.
I Tried update via mobile, LG PC Suite or LG Support tool but to no avail.
I might require some MAJOR help here. pretty pls.
p.s ; on net i saw t mobile and metropcs leon each giving out their own updates.
I would first suggest making a backup after rooting and installing twrp, since the old version allows you to unlock the bootloader, and newer version do not !!
Plenty of tutorials for this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-2/how-to/lg-leon-d-e-f-one-click-root-t3231622/page2 is simplest root.
I have the 10f, and can not unlock my bootloader to upgrade to MM Android 6.0, so if you do get a backup made via twrp, please let me know here.

Hi guys
I should be picking my Korean version Lg G2 tomorrow and I need help with a few things.
The first thing is, from what I've been reading this phone now runs the latest version of android (KitKat 4.4) but if it hasn't already been updated when I get the phone, is it easy for me to do as this is a Korean phone and I'm in the UK?
The other thing is, if its on KitKat 4.4 will I still be able to root it?
Thanks guys
I really need help here guys
Ive now got the phone and its already rooted but its on android 4.2.2.
When i go into "about phone" it says:
Android Version 4.2.2
Kernel version 3.4.0
Software version F320K 10i
Will this guide work to update me to 4.4 and root it:

Another problem.....
I tried to do a OTA update but it just said that my firmware was up to date, so i downloaded the lg pc suite (uk version) and its trying to update it to firmware F320L21V.
From what ive been reading its meant to update to F320K20a.
What should i do because i dont think the F320L21V can be rooted?
Yet another update......
I've just checked all the sticker on the box/phone and the stamp and it says that the phone is a F320L (not K), so i think it must have been flashed with the K firmware my the person i bought it off.
But im still stuck because the F320L21V firmware isn't compatible with ioroot
Any ideas guys ?
i also have f320l. u manage to root it?
there seems be a lack of support for this model.
btw does ur phone have FM? mine don't.
just use the iroot.. it should work with f320
Hello.
Bought LG Leon (LG H342F) recently and its my first LG phone.
I'm used to Samsung devices and now i wanted a nice device with 4g.
I'm pretty familiar with rooting, flashing and recovery in general.
In Samsung we have Odin and sites like Sammobile to download and flash stock firmware if anything goes wrong. LG have any kind of tools like Odin and Sammobile ?
Another thing, All LG bootloaders comes unlocked ? the LG itself unlock it via their sites ? like Motorola do.
Thats it.
Thanks.
Yes, there are LG equivalents to Odin.
So you want to root it ? Downgrading firmware ?!
é Brasileiro??
are you Brazilian?? you could do root after update it ?? No update is not updated if you managed to not no more, I'm LGh342f to 3 months happy with tava root ai n updated with more root, and do not think downgrade
Hi guys!
I've been searching for about a month and could not find adequate info for my phone, so decided to start my own thread.
I am planning to find solutions to root, TWRP custom recovery and custom ROM installation on LG Leon H340n phones from Vodafone UK.
I'm looking forward to getting this started!

Root Follow Up
I have some info stating that root was easy to get on 5.1.1 or stock firmware, but I was unable to find the KDZ file. So if anyone could come up with the KDZ for "LG Leon H340n Vodafone UK Stock Firmware (5.1.1)", we could do some testing in order to try and get root. After this TWRP and Custom ROM installation should be easy!
Hello all!
It's been a while since I've been back, and i've definitely been out of the loop for this phone..
The last thing I did with it was right after I bought it, I unlocked it, rooted it, put TWRP custom recovery on it using the "dirtycow recowvery" patch and method.
Very very long time ago...
I'm still running Nougat 7.0.1 I believe? Basically whatever the phone shipped with.
I have the T-Mobile Variant:
LGH91860fbde7d
My main question is, any phone is unusable for me if I can't get Root, and a custom recovery on it.
What is the latest version/guide on the LG V20 of the latest version of Android that it supports to download and install where I can still Root, and put TWRP on it?
I did search the forum, but there's a lot of guides, and I don't want to "assume" that it's for the latest version of Android (Oreo?) for the V20, so I wanted to make sure
Thanks!!
Hi, I recently had this new oreo update on my v20. I want to root this device. I am new to understanding how rooting works. Couldn't find any basic guide to understand this process. Can someone please help me root this device, i have H990ds. Thanks!
Basically the root method is rollback to the december 2016 security patch update, do an exploit that installs an engineering bootloader that doesn't care if its locked or unlocked, and use the fastboot mode from said engineering bootloader to flash twrp. Guide for the H990 models is here. Flash a rom like Alpha Omega to get back to a current update.
The only things I'd add to it is replace the twrp from the guide with my current one from this thread and install a newer custom kernel like mk2000 instead of the old one in the guide.
